The horrors of NBA 2K17’s face scan

NBA 2k17: The Prelude is now available for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, and fans can begin to create their character for MyCareer mode. To create a player that looks like you, you can use the face scan technology via the NBA 2K17 app on the iOS and Android. The Nerd Reactor team tried it out, and the results are hilarious… and disturbing.

*Note: There are many variables involved, but make sure you have adequate lighting and are centering your face properly in the app.

Let’s take a look at Nerd Reactor’s Narvin Seegoolam and his many MyPlayer facial scan results.
